This is the error message I have seen in my Linux+Postfix+Amavisd-new system. Not only that, but Amavis has kept a copy of each message in its tmp directory, which reduced my /var size to nothing quite rapidly. amavis[21189]: (21189-01) (!)PRESERVING EVIDENCE in /var/amavis/tmp/amavis-200 80103T051116-21189 Doesn’t sound too good. Partial search in google has produced the…

I’ve also made a mistake once, and managed to kill all SSH daemons, including the running ones. I am…

Not much of a programmer

Byetzion 11/08/2005

I’ve decided just few days ago to add monitoring of Apache (httpd) to my MRTG graphs. So I’ve enabled the server-status page, for a limited set of addresses, and added…
